A review by carriekellenberger
The Inconvenient Duchess by Christine Merrill
2.0
Starving and destitute, Lady Miranda is forced to visit the decrepit and crumbling manor of Marcus, a heartbroken lord that has lived on his own for the past 10 years. Arriving late at night with no escort, Marcus is forced to marry Miranda in order to save her honor.
Being from a questionable background, Marcus immediately leaves Miranda at home to inquire into her background, and he discovers some startling information about her. Meanwhile, back at the manor, Miranda has taken charge of the household staff and is fashioning the manor into a home that Marcus can be proud of. She is accompanied by Marcus's evil brother St.John, who is determined to woo Miranda away and ruin Marcus's life forever.
As Marcus and Miranda get to know each other, their relationship blossoms and grows, while St. John continues to try and worm his way into Miranda's confidence.
Another predictable, but free Kindle read. I like these kinds of books because they don't require a lot of thought or energy. Miranda and Marcus's characters are well developed and the story doesn't include all the annoying trappings and misunderstandings that many stories of this genre tend to include.
